What with the cool Russian atmosphere 'round here lately, I thought I'd grab an opportunity to pick your brains on something;
I've been after the print of this Russian babe for far too long now. It's called "Nastassja Kinski And The Serpent", photographed by Richard Avedon.
I saw it once, and thought oh yes, I just gotta have one of those ;-) Years went by though, and I left it too late. When I got round to deciding to actually BUY one, I simply couldn't find one - and believe me I've tried BIG-TIME!
Even went as far as tracking down the publishers, to get the lowdown.
They told me that it's a very old print now, and they only have their archived prints (not for sale). However, they offered me some hope by saying; major distributors sometimes hold onto stock for many years, so it's not impossible that there'll be some remaining.
I tried EVERYWHERE and EVERYTHING I could think of here in England, but no luck :-(
I was wondering if any of the Brycers here may have seen this print for sale recently in their country. The print above is MASSIVELY cropped, and the actual print is HUGE and looks absolutely awesome I can tell ya :-P
I want it on the studio wall, so PLEASE, if anyone can help me in any way on this, please do :-)
I'm after a "mint" copy if possible.
Len.
